Information

Buffalo storage devices are very popular these days. Most common are the Buffalo TeraStation and LinkStation. Frequently available with USB and NAS connectivity, Terastations usually come in a RAID 5 configuration and span data across multiple hard drives. Buffalo LinkStation’s are usually single disk storage boxes – two disk LinkStations are available in either a RAID 0 or RAID 1 format. All use the XFS filesystem and use SATA hard disk drives using capacities of 500GB and above.

We've used Data Clinic twice now - once for my son's laptop which held all his University work and suddenly seemed to just die, that was recovered with ease. And then secondly in connection with work when our office computer system backups were somehow corrupted. These people really know their stuff - they are very helpful and professional and quick! Thanks so much for everything.

My company provides IT support to approximately 60 Yorkshire based companies ranging from small 10-15 users up to Enterprise sized organizations. Due to disk failure a client recently lost their entire database. We contacted Data Clinic and within hours a representative was onsite, several hours later the drive was returned, again in person by Data Clinic Manchester. I would not hesitate contacting them again, outstanding service in a market that can mean life or death to a business. 10 stars if there was an option!
